Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement

On August 12, 2006, KCP&L, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Great Plains Energy, entered into a contract with ALSTOM Power Inc. for the engineering, procurement and construction of air quality control and selective catalytic reduction systems at Iatan Units 1 and 2, and of the Iatan Unit 2 boiler. The air quality control systems will be comprised of flue gas desulphurization, mercury control and baghouse systems. The contract contemplates that the Iatan Unit 1 systems will be completed in November 2008, and that the Iatan Unit 2 boiler and systems will be installed by November 2009.

The total contract price is approximately $713 million, subject to certain adjustments and a potential early completion bonus respecting the Iatan Unit 2 work. KCP&L’s portion of the stated contract price is approximately $426 million after reimbursement from the other owners of Iatan Units 1 and 2 of their proportionate shares of the contract price.

The contract contains terms, conditions, representations, covenants, warranties and financial assurances customary and appropriate to agreements of this type including, without limitation, performance, completion and other certain guarantees, warranties that the work will conform to contract specifications, and letters of credit requirements. The contract also contains termination provisions and contractor events of default including, without limitation, failure to perform any material duty or obligation, failure to maintain required letters of credit, and certain bankruptcy and insolvency events. The contract further provides for a limitation of liability (with certain exceptions) to the contract price, and liquidated damages as the exclusive remedy for contractor failure to meet certain schedule dates or performance guarantees.
